PAULA K O BRIEN

From Clonakilty in West Cork comes a guitar and mandolin wielding folk/country artist, with the maturity to know that there is strength in vulnerability and power in gentleness.
Paula’s music holds her truth.

As a mother and a nurse, she has used her life experiences and written incredibly diverse songs for her album, Evangeline.
Her song about her Mother’s birth place Bere Island has made her a household name in West Cork and helped to garner the attention of Luka Bloom who asked her to record backing vocals on his album, Frugalisto. She was closen by IMRO to play at Templebar Tradfest ‘17 and has performed support for Hothouse Flowers, Jack L , Mama Kin and Nick Harper, all helping to hone her craft and grow as a performer. She is currently recording new material in Lettercollum Recording Studio with John Fitzgerald.

Paula K’s performances will leave you with a feeling of fulfilment and the knowledge that a scream may grab attention but a whisper will always hold it.
